description
The LT1080 and LT1081 are dual driver/receivers that include a charge pump to supply EIA-232 voltage levels
from a single 5-V supply. These interface-optimized devices are designed to avoid latch-up and provide a
realistic balance between CMOS levels of power dissipation and real-world requirements for ruggedness. The
driver outputs are fully protected against overload and can be shorted to
±
30 V. Unlike CMOS devices, the
advanced architecture of the LT1080 and LT1081 does not load the signal line when shut down or when the
power is off. Both the receiver and EIA-232 outputs are put into a high-impedance state. An advanced output
stage allows driving higher capacitive loads at higher speeds with exceptional resistance to ESD.
Applications for these devices include portable computers, battery-powered EIA-232 systems, power-supply
generators, terminals, and modems.
The LT1080C and LT1081C are characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The LT1080I and LT1081I are
characterized for operation from – 40°C to 85°C.
PRODUCTION DATA information is current as of publication date.
Products conform to specifications per the terms of Texas Instruments
standard warranty. Production processing does not necessarily include
testing of all parameters.
